Root Flashing new ROM

So I successfully rooted my EVO 3D from VM and flashed the JMZ stock rom. Now I want to flash a new rom that doesn't require S-Off (HBOOT-1.57 so a wire trick is not my thing). Also I want to keep all my app data since when I rooted my phone I lost some saves for a couple games. Any input? I know Harmonia is a option but then it tells me flash 2 files which im not familiar in doing.
 
The thing is when any rom is flashed its not required but recommended to wipe all data minus sd card or the rom may not fully flash. If your worried about the saved data in games, just pick up titanium.

Lol if you flashed stock rom in the root process there wasn't a way around it anyway since titanium is only aquirable after root.

Yea at the time I was all scared to brick my phone so I followed step by step. But yea I looked at turning S-Off but the only thing I found was the wire trick, unless there is another way it staying on lol.

The wire trick is the only way, it's actually simpler than building a working Gold Card, plus like I've mentioned in other posts you're not actually shorting anything out, all you are doing is taking a pull down resistor low by grounding it to the sd card frame. Worst that anyone seems to have done is wipe the sd card. Use a spare.
